HSBC can buy Hong Kong stocks, but there is still no way to buy and sell Hong Kong stocks with HSBC bank account alone. After the opening of the HSBC account, it is also necessary to open a Hong Kong stock account.

There are several ways to open Hong Kong stock accounts in the mainland:

1. Go to Hong Kong in person and handle in a bank or securities company. The disadvantages of handling in banks are high commission, high handling fee and no more professional service than securities companies. It is suggested to choose securities companies with large scale and strong strength.

2. Through the branches of Hong Kong Securities Companies in the mainland. Among them, there are some old securities companies, but more are fish eyes mixed with pearls, and the safety of funds cannot be guaranteed.

3. Through domestic securities companies, domestic securities companies such as Haitong Securities and China Merchants Securities have subsidiaries in Hong Kong, and Mainland China has a special Hong Kong Securities Service Department to connect with Hong Kong. China Merchants Securities has a capital threshold of 500000 yuan, but Haitong does not. Through mainland securities companies, capital security is guaranteed; After opening an account, customers can trade directly on the computer like a shares.

Materials and procedures required for opening an account: the investor shall open an account in the business department with his personal ID card. Customers in Shenzhen, Guangdong can go directly to Haitong business department (Shenzhen Huaqiang North). After the business department fills in the information, the business department will send the information to Hong Kong and complete the data verification and account opening procedures in Hong Kong.

Account opening fee: no charge for account opening. Considering the differences between the mainland and Hong Kong, the commission charged by Haitong is a little lower than that of Hong Kong, which is only 1.5%. After opening an account, if the amount of funds and transaction volume are relatively large, you can also apply for conversion to 1.2% or 1% per thousand.
